Cool Temper, Keep Calm

Anger doesn't resolve problem, it only aggravates it
If you throw stones at every barking dogs, when will you get to your destination?
Woe unto man who can't keep his anger in control
Tell an angry person not to bother working
Because no matter what he achieves, within a minute  of anger he will scatter all he laboured for


Some years ago, a classmate of mine responded me in a way I perceived offensive when I asked her for an assignment fee
I was so angered at the response but I could not boil as I would love to do at the moment
So she came with the money after the deadline
You need to see way I was talking uncontrollably
That it took the whole class to pacify me
But when I came to myself, I was like this isn't a big deal to rant over
Since then, I have always keep my anger in check and am feeling better not reacting to what would have made me angry

Then I discovered, it takes more strength to keep calm when angry than scattering the whole place with vengeful anger
Only a weak fellow will react to every Tom, Dick and Harry actions
Smile at offensive manners, cool your temper at the face of humiliation
It's not what everyone can do, so doing it gives you an edge

Do you know it takes more muscle to be angered than smiling?
So what happens on the long run is that you wear yourself out
When you're angry, the situation is in charge and controls you
But when you are calm, you're on top of the situation and you're in charge
You will find reasons to be angry on daily basis
You must define the moment and not the moment defining you.
